Run
This attorney should be reported to the bar and I intend to do so. I wasted almost a solid year of my sending them such tangible evidence. Videos, pictures, e-mails, mold testing etc. This guy has like 16 people associated with this firm. They all contact you and ask you for different things I had...
Binh Bui
Replied last January 10, 2025I'm sorry you feel our evaluation of your evidence is low. We give realistic evaluations based on the evidence you provide. We also advise renters to leave a house/unit when it's unhealthy which you clearly think is so as well. I see that as being a good human being giving good advice. No one should have to live in bad conditions. You should move and sue the landlord. There is no "scam" since as you acknowledge, we estimated your case value and we would have tried to achieve those goals on a contingency basis. We've never asked you for money and never would. I wish you luck in finding another law firm.

Unprofessional
Ben Bowie has been my attorney for over four years never responds to emails maybe possibly a week later hires unprofessional workers to do his bids. I have to call him email him doesn’t respond until several days later waited three years to receive $4000 which is not satisfactory being that the landl...

Replied last January 10, 2025I have no idea what it means to hire workers to do my bids... If we had proof that the landlord violated 15 of your rights, we would have gotten you much more than $4000. As a reminder, we always get your permission to settle any case and we work on contingency. We WANT to get as much as possible since we get a percentage of the settlement. However, your case did not warrant a high amount since we had very little evidence. I wish you the best.

Waste of time incompetent law firm
Worst experience, i told them my case I am a homeowner and every week they had me confused with others asking about my landlord and my lease agreement when i own the home and told them over and over. They are a waste of time sent over 100 emails and his staff is completely incompetent.

Replied last January 10, 2025I am sorry you had a bad experience with us. We do not represent landlords so I am not sure why you made it into our system.

Lies
Horrible experience- lies . He will not go to trial . He will tell you your case is max 40000. Don’t listen. Check the bar he does not get 10-30 new cases a month, or have no losses. Do your research .
Binh Bui
Replied last January 10, 2025We do sign up 10-30 cases per month, average is about 15. We have lost before, though not often. When we estimate your case at $40,000, that's our opinion and we always encourage people to get multiple opinions. I hope you found a firm that could meet your expectations.

Awaiting outcome
2 years still on a case with tons of evidence and pages from the county with 15 violations on home me and my 10 year old son lived at etc etc . I personally would be an attorney #1 for the best interest of my clients, to look out for them , understand , feel, imagine, just fight for them you know ...
Binh Bui
Replied last January 10, 2025I'm sorry you feel this way. Every client has my cell phone, if there are issues you can call me directly. As a note, we tell every new client that cases average 18 months (not max, but average). And yes, there are negative reviews which I could ask Avvo to remove...but I would rather leave them on, as it means there is a learning opportunity from each negative review. The 100+ positive reviews sort of balance things out.
